# tabImage

An image that represents the content of the tab.

## Declaration

```swift
var tabImage: UIImage? { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion This image has precedence over any system item that tabSystemItem specifies, and CarPlay only uses it when the template is a root-template of a tab bar.
